Who is Max Martin's wife? Ariana Grande spends quality time with Swedish hitmaker after enjoying his Broadway musical '& Juliet'

Notably, two of Ariana Grande's hits 'Problem' and 'Break Free' feature in the Max Martin-led Broadway production of '& Juliet'

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: The Swedish songwriter Max Martin, who has been married to Jenny Pettersson since 2011, was seen spending quality time with Ariana Grande after the pop star attended the Broadway production of '& Juliet' on Monday, October 2.

Grande shared a carousel of photos, that included a snap of her sharing a smile with the record producer after she enjoyed the Broadway performance.

Notably, the musical is a unique take on the Shakespearean classic ‘Romeo and Juliet’, but unlike the original play, in this, Juliet continues to live even after Romeo dies.

Two of Grande’s hits 'Problem' and 'Break Free' are also featured in the play.

Ariana Grande took to Instagram to share a carousel of images, and among them was an adorable photo of herself with Max Martin. The duo was seemingly in a New York rooftop restaurant and had the setting sun in the background. 

She sported her signature high ponytailed hair while the composer kept his hair down.

He was seen smiling at the camera, while Grande had an ear-to-ear grin with her eyes closed. 

Her carousel further included several goofy photos of her, including her sitting on the seat of a luxury car and a photo of her shadow on a wall.

She also posted a video of Martin sitting and laughing as she panned her camera toward a poster of '& Juliet'.

The ‘& Juliet’ Broadway also posted a video of Ariana Grande visiting the production. The ‘Side to Side’ singer was seen spending time with the star of the show, Lorna Courtney. 

Grande also collected autographs from the cast members as she was heard saying to the talented actors, "Will you sign my thing?"

The ‘Save Your Tears’ crooner admitted to the cast that she "cried like a baby" during the performance.

The production posted the pictures on their Instagram page with the caption, "Ariana, what are you doing here? 🥹 @arianagrande stopped by and we’re stronger than we’ve been before."

What's Ariana Grande up to these days? 

Ariana Grande’s Broadway outing came days after she filed for a divorce from her estranged husband, Dalton Gomez, on September 18. 

She also recently came back from a vacation in Disneyland with her rumored beau, Ethan Slater.

In early September, during a GRWM video with Vogue, Grande opened up about her beauty insecurities and encouraged her fans to embrace their natural beauty and rise above insecurities.

She shared in the video that during the initial days of her career, she used makeup as a "disguise" for her abysmally low confidence.

Candidly speaking about Botox, she remarked, "I stopped in 2018 because I just felt so — too much. I just felt like [I was] hiding, you know?"

While sharing that she "didn't expect to get emotional," the songstress broke into tears, and admitted, "I, over the years, used makeup as a disguise or as something to hide behind."
